Achilleas Anagnostopoulos 6dd00b5934 Create a global symbol alias for kernel.Kmain ...

The go compiler exposes a fully qualified symbol for kernel.Kmain that
also includes the full package name (github.com/.../kernel.Kmain). Since nasm
cannot work with external symbols that include slashes we use objcopy to
create an alias symbol "kernel.Kmain" that points to the symbol
generated by the go compiler.

To use the "--add-symbol" argument we need to use objcopy 2.6+. The
makefile was modified to include an additional pre-compile check for the
installed objcopy version.
